"I suffered from very severe PMT since commencing the contraceptive pill 27 years ago. Panic attacks, irritability, depression, low self-esteem, bloating, weight gain, fluid retention, tender breasts and worst of all paralytic migraine where I was unable to speak properly, flashing lights, nausea, sometimes vomiting, hearing disturbances, giddiness, pins and needles up my arm, over my face, in my mouth and nose. At the time my doctor assured me it was nothing to do with the pill and to keep using it.

I was referred to a neurologist because of the paralytic migraine as they suspected MS and a host of other neurological problems. I also saw a psychiatrist at my GP’s suggestion who said there was no major problem. I have been put on beta blockers, tranquillizers etc, which did not help. I tried acupuncture and homeopathy which did not help. Reflexology helped greatly but did not totally solve the problem.

About five years ago I became menopausal and all my symptoms returned and flared up, plus a few others; spots which I had never had before, constipation, diarrhoea, hot flushes, sleep problems, breathing difficulties, weeping and memory blackouts. I tried herbs, these helped but were not the answer.

Enter Serenity Natural Progesterone Cream. At first I was very stirred up and for a couple of months I had fluid retention and swollen breasts. However, over the months I have improved: Breathing difficulties by 90%, Migraines eased 90%, Bloating improved 80%, Weeping gone, Hot Flushes 99%, Bowel problems 95%, Depression 99%, Spots 95%, Anxiety 80%, Memory Blackouts and Forgetfulness 80%.

Generally I am much improved, it did take a while for Natural Progesterone to ‘kick in’ as my periods are so irregular. I would commence using the cream on day 14 but within a week the period would start so I was not able to use it for long enough. However, I upped the amount used after reading Lesley Kenton’s book ‘Passage to Power’ and things have slowly but surely picked up. I am impressed with the cream and am hoping to soon be free of the remaining symptoms before long, after my years of suffering. Serenity just works."
